A Dream in Neutral Hues: Enchanting Design and Florals
The ambiance of Hillside Estates was transformed into a vision of elegance, with neutral color tones and antique gold accents gracefully adorning every corner. The captivating garden-style floral designs featured Sydney’s favorite blooms, including Toffee roses, Queen Ann’s lace, and quicksand roses, delicately arranged with fresh greenery. The enchanting floral pieces, coupled with antique gold candlesticks and ivory taper candles, added a touch of ethereal beauty to the surroundings, setting the stage for a truly magical affair.
A Bride’s Radiance: Sydney’s Three-Piece Monique Lhuillier Bridal Set
As Sydney made her way down the aisle, all eyes were drawn to her radiance. Her wedding gown, a breathtaking three-piece set designed by Monique Lhuillier, exuded timeless elegance. The stunning ensemble perfectly complemented the French-inspired theme, making Sydney the epitome of grace and beauty on her special day.
A Culinary Journey of Delightful Flavors
The celebration continued with Blue Fire Catering serving a seated dinner, commencing with a delectable array of tray-passed hors d’oeuvres during cocktail hour. Guests savored true Pastor turfs of blistered tomato bruschetta, adobo pulled pork, and Carnitas mini tacos, along with a refreshing seasonal fruit salad and cream cheese cones, a symphony of flavors that tantalized the senses.
For the first course, a baby spinach salad adorned with succulent strawberries, creamy goat cheese, and a delightful balsamic vinaigrette delighted the palate of each guest. The entrée options were equally enticing: Tuscan chicken breast stuffed with tomato, mozzarella, and basil, drizzled with a rich Potomac reduction, served with buttermilk-smashed potatoes and grilled asparagus; Mediterranean grilled salmon topped with Kalamata olive and tomato tapenade, paired with the same delightful sides; or a vegetarian option of spaghetti squash with basil marinara and grilled portobello olive ragout, a true delight for non-meat lovers.

The sweet treats were a thoughtful touch, symbolizing the couple’s gratitude and love for their guests.
